"Cloud networks are similar to a virtual private network (VPN) because they enable
users to securely access files, printers, applications, etc. from anywhere in the world,
on any device. However, cloud networks are multi-tenant private virtual cloud networks
that overlay the Internet. Each virtual cloud network functions like a borderless LAN
and provides fully switched, any-to-any connectivity between servers, PCs, and mobile
devices from anywhere" - Wikipedia

NetVirt is a network virtualization platform that allows you to create and manage your
own peer-to-peer virtual private network (VPN) with the goal to keep it simple for everyone. VPN and
encryption are often only used by those who are knowledgeable and more skilled. Everyone
should be able to use a VPN-based technology.
With the internet of things and the world globalization maintaining and managing networks
gets harder and harder. Flexibility, ease of use and security become the key drivers.
Traditional VPN solutions are hard to put in place, to configure properly and to make sure
they are secure. Furthermore, they do not scale easily as you start adding more and more devices.
New cloud-based solutions have been developped in recent years, but they are close source and
private, it is not possible to host your own instance or even audit the source code, a must
in any security product. Software-defined networking and network virtualization brings more
flexibility and scalability than ever. NetVirt is based on those concepts which gives him
technical advantages over traditional VPN.
NetVirt allows to easily create P2P encrypted connection through NAT and firewall, and because
it's offering LAN-like connectivity between each device, it becomes easy to use traditional
tools to chat, share files, have phone calls and video conferences over an encrypted link.
A centralized web dashboard gives the possibility to create secure virtual network, add computers
and devices instantly and to manage them easily from a single point. From the client side,
connecting to a newly created private network is a matter of a second because all the complexity
of handling certificates is hidden behind a provisioning mechanism.
A major part of NetVirt has been built already, but to go from a beta release to a professional
solution that the user will use seamlessly and joyfully there is still a lot of work to do.
